Usually essential to switch speeds.

286258 2004-10-30 10:47:00 Seriously, how many threads are you going to make whining about JetStream?

Every time I log in here theres yet another thread, started by you, moaning about Orcon or JetStream or Telecom or BitStream or Speed.

Seriously, change ISP's or buy a satellite or something.

If I want to make a thread I will.
Satellite is no good at all.

286260 2004-10-30 19:50:00 And I'm not whining about Jetstream at all.
All I asked was whether anyone else had been connected to Bitstream at the correct speed. That's not a moan, just a question.

Not sure what your issue with Jim Henson is, but seriously leave him out of it.

286262 2004-10-30 22:14:00 Suggest if you dont have anything useful to say then dont say it. If you dont like a post then ignore and move on.
Fact is a lot of people have alot to say about Telecom, jestream etc etc. We are all internet users and this is a pc forum, so it's quite a relevant topic, and one that is frequently covered by PC world itself.
I happen to be having problems with my bitstream adsl connection and apparently so are many other people. So why do you have a problem with me asking to see if anyone else has a similar problem? Thanks to these forums and the majority of helpful users, I have managed to solve quite a few issues with my pc.
Suggest you find other posts more tailored to your own interest and leave others to engage in their own topic of conversation.

286263 2004-10-31 01:03:00 I was changing ISPs from Jetstream 256 to my actual provider iHug - when a letter arrived saying that T/com where going to increase my line spee to 2MB/s at no extra cost.

Canned the transfer to iHug broadband about 7 seconds later.

286265 2004-10-31 21:40:00 Do you realise that there are around 20 posts in which you have referred to people as "Muppets". How do you expect people to respect you when you abuse people like that.

For those of you who don't know, the word Muppet has evolved in the UK (no, it's not pronounced Uck) into a nickname for the intellectually disabled. The term is similar to the way the word Spastic or Spas' was (ab)used in the 70s.
